Please call us on 01926 339808 to chat about a group discount - if you can get a group of 6+ together we can offer you a great deal.

Thanks for offering members a group discount. I hope some are able to take you up on your generous offer. I know that if I lived in the UK, I would love to see Daniel Ho. If members aren't able to get together as a group, would you still be willing to work out some form of discount for members that would like to participate? It is still a rather small forum.

No problem! I can see what I can do about the discount - it depends how many of you would want to go. The advance tickets are a bargain anyway at ?17.50 for a day or ?32.50 for the weekend - that's a reduced price from last year

The trade come to exhibit but the public visit - anyone can come! The show consists of a large exhibition hall and other exhibition areas, a main stage, a masterclass suite and a cafe stage. Various performances and masterclasses go on throughout the day and you can wander around and find show deals in between.

Country legend Albert Lee, described by Eric Clapton as 'the ultimate guitar virtuoso', will headline The London Acoustic Show 2015. Gary Lutton who won this year's Sky Arts' Guitar Star will also be performing on the Acoustic Cafe stage. Hope to see some of you there!
